The latest giant bust of Musk was spotted attached to a pickup truck at Utah's Arches National Park over the weekend with a sign that made a playful twist to President Donald Trump's "Make America Great Again" slogan.

Elon Musk on Wednesday teased a forthcoming male Grok companion from xAI, which already offers an anime waifu named Ani and a red panda named Rudi.
In a familiar critique of corporate structures, Musk also weighed in on the ideal environment for fostering such long-term, existentially focused AI. He declared, “For long-term optimization, it is better to be a private than a public company, as the latter is punished for long-term optimization beyond the reward cycle of stock portfolio managers.”
One of the new “companions,” or AI characters for users to interact with, is a sexualized blonde anime bot called “Ani."
